Here is my own blog post about. Please post your own! Take from mine! http://rejon.org/2008/04/01/support-the-libre-graphics-meeting-2008-in-polan...
Can someone do big blog post about LGM 2008 fundraising campaign to raise 20k USD by friday APRIL 18 on inkscape.org...Also, if there is any other way to spread the news, that would be helpful...please others, blog about the campaign along with the widget...if there are businesses, or those with access to funding, now is the time to help out your favorite project!
My blog post already filtered to Open Clip Art Library and the planets, but OFLB folks, need to figure out blog post there too, right?

What is the Libre Graphics Meeting?
The Libre Graphics Meeting brings together developers and users of free software graphics applications, such as the GIMP, Inkscape, Scribus, Blender, Krita, the Open Clipart Library and more.
In its third edition, the organization needs your help! You can support your favorite graphics application, and ensure that the travel costs of as many volunteer developers as possible are paid to ensure that this edition of the conference is more successful that its predecessors. The conference is May 8 - 11 in Wroclaw, Poland.
Where will the money go?
We have kept costs associated with infrastructure to a minimum. Over 80% of the conference budget will be spent on subsidizing travel and accommodation costs for developers. $20K is the goal to raise by Friday April 18! Help out!
A non-profit organization
All donations will be made to the conference organizers via the GNOME Foundation, a 501(c)3 tax exempt US-based non-profit, so donations will be tax deductible for US taxpayers. We would like to thank the GNOME Foundation for their support.
